Recommendation For Mounting The Valterra Adjustable RV Hose Carrier To A 4x4 Inch RV Bumper?
Question:
The brackets are spaced wider than a 4 in. x 4 in. rear bumper so how do you recommend attaching it securely to the rear bumper? Using a bracket for a spare tire carrier would not be wide enough.

The brackets of the Valterra Adjustable RV Hose Carrier - 50" to 94" - Black # A04-5094BK are 5 1/4 inches center on center, so yes it is wider than the 4 x4 inch bumper. I recommend the CE Smith Frame Strap - 5-1/4" Hole to Hole Length - Aluminum - Qty 1 # CE14135 and 9/16 inch bolts to your required length that you can find at a local hardware store.
